Test ads, pricing, and product decisions against AI-powered consumer simulations before you spend a euro in market.
Three product lines. One simulation engine. Each designed to eliminate a specific class of expensive mistake.
A/B-test ad headlines, body copy, and CTAs head-to-head against custom persona segments before committing budget. Compare variants side by side and see clearly which creative wins per customer group, by CTR, sentiment, and engagement.
Simulate how your customer base reacts to pricing changes before going live. Surface churn risk, value-perception shifts, and the optimal price point across segments.
Test new product ideas against your customer base. Discover unmet needs, validate positioning, and surface objections you'll face at scale before you commit to a roadmap.
Every layer of the simulation stack is designed to produce decisions you can defend, not guesses dressed in data.
Standard ad pre-tests recruit a panel and slice it into 2–4 segments. Imago simulates 1,000 individually profiled consumer agents, at a fraction of the price.

Real simulations, real insights. Each case study walks through the question, the setup, and what the agents revealed.
A single Instagram carousel anchored to an Öko-Test "sehr gut" seal, simulated against four DACH audience groups and 240 agents. The seal earned trust across the board; the missing dm-availability signal stalled three of four segments at the final step.
A single Meta in-feed restock ad for Smilodox's Aesthetic Compression Collection, simulated against four DACH audience groups and 120 agents. High attention, high conviction, even reach, and a resonance gap the panel exposed before a euro went to media.
A single static mood-board for the Beverly Set in berry bliss, simulated against four DACH audience groups across four exposure contexts. The colour earned attention everywhere; what each group did with that attention is where the spend decisions live.
